Dimethylenastron is a potent Eg5 inhibitor, with an IC50 of 200 nM. Dimethylenastron exhibits no inhibition of five other kinesin subfamilies (kinesin 1/4/7/10 and one ungrouped-originating from 4 different organisms). Dimethylenastron (0.5, 1 μM) causes accumulation of cells in G2/M in HeLa cells[1]. Dimethylenastron (3 and 10 μM) concentration-dependently suppresses the migratory ability of the cancer cells in PANC1 pancreatic cancer cells after treatment for 24 h, but does not inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells at 24 h until 72 h. Dimethylenastron also reduces invasion ability of the cancer cells[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.27 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

The co-solvents required include: DMSO, . All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE). , Tween 80. All of co-solvents are available by MedChemExpress (MCE).
Working solution concentration: 0.22 mg/mL
Method for preparing stock solution: mg drug dissolved in μL DMSO. Stock solution concentration: mg/mL.
1. Take μL DMSO stock solution;
2. Add μL .
μL , mix evenly;
3. Then add μL Tween 80, mix evenly;
4. Then add μL
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocolo
Cell invasion in response to Dimethylenastron is carried out by transwell assays. The upper surface of the transwell filters is coated with matrigel or fibronectin. Cells suspended in 200 μL serum-free media are added to the chamber, and the chamber is placed in a 24-well plate containing complete medium. After 24 h of incubation at 37°C, the filters are gently taken out and matrigel on the upper surface of the filters is removed by cotton swabs. Cells on the underside of transwell filters are fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 min, stained with 0.1% crystal violet for 10 min, and then photographed. For quantitative assessment, the number of invading cells is counted in five random fields per filter. The extent of cell invasion is quantified as the number of invading cells in the drug-treatment group divided by the number of invading cells in the control group[2].

Just after the conjunctival suture is closed, a metallic needle (30 G) is inserted into the subconjunctival space at the nasal margin of the superior rectus muscle and injection of one of the following agents is delivered: The rabbits receive either no adjuvant after the surgery in the control group, one unilateral subconjunctival injection of Dimethylenastron (1.0 µmol, 3.0 µmol) or of the vehicle (DMSO, 99.9%, 10 mg/mL) alone at baseline, which means an injection directly after surgery and in two further groups additionally at days 3 and 7 thereafter (1.0 µmol, 3.0 µmol)[3].
